Job Description

Job Title: Instrumentation & Controls (I&C) Engineer 

Location: Remote

Contract Type: Long-Term Contract

Industry: Advanced Nuclear / Generation IV Reactor Technology


System One is seeking a highly skilled Instrumentation & Controls (I&C) Engineer to support the development of Sodium Fast Reactor technologies. This contractor position reports directly to the Plant I&C Manager and will play a key role in designing, developing, and integrating I&C systems for advanced nuclear applications.


The role includes responsibility for instrument and control system design, prototype development and testing, plant-level system integration, and commissioning. You will work closely with internal and external engineering teams, vendors, and stakeholders to deliver high-quality, technically sound solutions for Generation IV nuclear reactor systems.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the design and integration of I&C and supporting electrical systems from functional requirements through final design and commissioning.

  • Collaborate with a geographically distributed team of in-house, subcontracted, and partner resources to develop system documentation and designs.

  • Develop and review system- and component-level specifications, scopes of work, and engineering documentation.

  • Ensure compliance with nuclear industry codes, standards (e.g., IEEE, IEC), and NRC regulations in all engineering activities.

  • Specify and evaluate instrumentation for use in high-temperature and sodium fast reactor environments, considering performance criteria such as accuracy, range, and response time.

  • Perform technical analyses of I&C system design in accordance with licensing requirements and quality assurance standards (e.g., 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, ASME NQA-1).

  • Generate and manage detailed drawing packages, including P&IDs, loop diagrams, control architecture drawings, and installation layouts.

  • Develop integrated system design packages and support interface control with related disciplines (mechanical, electrical, nuclear, etc.).

  • Provide technical direction and oversight to suppliers, ensuring deliverables meet project requirements.

  • Support continuous improvement by applying nuclear industry best practices and identifying process enhancements.

  • Assist with licensing activities and contribute to documentation such as Safety Analysis Reports (SARs).

  • Contribute to I&C system testing, including development and review of formal system startup procedures.

Qualifications & Experience

  • B.S. or higher in Controls, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline from an accredited university.

  • 6+ years of experience in instrumentation and controls systems design, development, and integration. (Advanced degrees may substitute for years of experience.)

  • Proven ability to deliver robust I&C solutions in complex technical environments.

  • Familiarity with nuclear instrumentation or reactor safety system design preferred.

  • Experience with IEEE/IEC standards, industrial process control, and development of PFDs and P&IDs.

  • Understanding of nuclear QA frameworks such as ASME NQA-1, 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, and related regulatory compliance.

  • CAD software proficiency preferred (e.g., AutoCAD Electrical, SolidWorks).

  • Experience with high-temperature process systems (400°C and above) is a plus.

  • Excellent technical writing, presentation, and interpersonal skills.

  • Demonstrated ability to manage competing objectives and lead multidisciplinary teams with minimal supervision.

  • Experience with startup testing procedures and integration of I&C systems is highly desirable.
